This toad is by far the most useless, anti-clutch player every to play the game. Thank God we only have this season to endure his daily displays of wasted at-bats and meaningless hits. Did you catch his typical performance today? Comes up with two outs and nobody on in the eighth, his team down 4-0, and gets a single. That was his only hit today. Our number 4 hitter. One inning later, with two outs, the bases loaded, and his team down 4-2, he strikes out...looking...on a 3-2 pitch. He actually struck out on the pitch before on a check swing but was given a second chance and still choked. That was right after the Seattle broadcasters noted that his last walk off hit was in August. August of 2001! Well before Bill "Stonehead" Stoneman gave Grandpa a multi-year extension.

How long has this guy played? Is it 13 or 14 years? And I overstated his anti-clutch ability. He did get the big hit in game 7 of the 2002 World Series. One clutch hit in 14 years. So thanks for that, but now just go away. Get an eye infection, pull a hammy, trip and fall and break a leg, take your money and just go away.
